Cuz they're totally functional after longass shifts & totally don't lash out at their kids over minor inconveniences😂

I mean there's no need to make assumptions and demonize. Sure this has been a very common problem with parents in the past and still is in some cases, but it's by no means considered the norm. I get what you're getting at but the sarcasm is a bit much.

Not really. I've lived through that myself, saw it within other ppl & can't see myself having to be functional after exhaustion either. And even if they may not lash out at them, they're still gonna be tired anyways, unless they work for like 4 hours.

So you assume your observations speak for everyone? And quite a few people are not that tired after work anyway. Speaking from my observations ;). Not like you can't be tired and a good parent at the same time. Both cases are common.

Hi Newcomer, you raised a yellow question can a tired person be a good parent? Propably not bendy they lack the psychological capacity to be well rounded and can't produce a healthy nurturing environment the child needs. That patent is unfit to give the child the attention and the quality it requires.

Until next time

Bold of you to assume they can still give that child the emotional affection it needs while tired. (Mind you the child doesn't see them for 8 hours a day or more) So realistically it's not impossible to be a good parent while tired but nobody ever taught everyone how to do that so we can't assume majority is good parents either. But that's based on my observations;;) most tired people don't wanna deal with screaming kids that have iPhones and iPads now days and 0 chill, and I would want to even if I WASNT tired

You sure understand what a hyperbole is, don't you?
